Stouffer's Spinach Soufflé
Description
This recipe for Stouffer's Spinach Soufflé blends heavy cream beaten with eggs, thawed and drained chopped spinach, grated Parmesan cheese, flour, nutmeg, cayenne pepper, kosher salt, and coarse black pepper. The mixture is whisked until uniform, then baked in a greased 8x8-inch baking dish at 350°F for 30 to 35 minutes until fully set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
The soufflé offers a light, creamy texture characteristic of egg-based custards, with richness from the cream and Parmesan and a subtle warmth from the nutmeg and cayenne. The spinach adds a mild vegetal flavor and moisture, balanced by the flour which helps stabilize the structure. The gentle seasonings complement the overall savory profile without overpowering.
This dish serves well as a side for poultry, fish, or roasted meats or as a vegetarian light main dish accompanied by a salad or crusty bread.
